Overview
- Coach Kasper Hjulmand said Grimaldo carries a small question mark and his availability will be decided after training with the team on Friday.
- The left‑back missed Spain’s 2–2 draw with Turkey due to muscular problems traced to a thigh knock late in Leverkusen’s 6–0 win over Heidenheim.
- Grimaldo trained individually on Thursday with a light program and was slated to rejoin full training on Friday, with Arthur dealing with back issues and Nathan Tella back in the squad.
- BILD and SportBILD report Bayern are eyeing Grimaldo, with a reported asking price around €20 million and a potential summer move discussed under his contract running to 2027.
- Reporting indicates Leverkusen will push for a high fee after Tah’s free move to Bayern, while Bayern would likely handle the defender’s wages and could view him as cover if Raphaël Guerreiro departs.
